Bumper: We see four screens, each containing scenes from a film released by Roadshow Home Video. Here's what films are seen.

Version 1: Mad Max (Top left) - We see a car doing a stunt and crashing straight thru a caravan. Then we see Max's car doing a drift around obstacles. Far East (Top right) - We see a women in-front of people dancing, we see her turn towards a man that's looking at her. We then cut back to the women. Gallipoli (Bottom left) - TBA Puberty Blues (Bottom right) - TBA Version 2: Young Doctors In Love (Top left) - TBA First Blood (Top right) - TBA High Road To China (Bottom left) - TBA Lone Wolf McQuade (Bottom right) - TBA

Trivia: In version 1, every film seen there is an Australian film.

Technique: The live action seen in the films.

Music/Sounds: Just a male voice-over saying "For More Movie Previews, Keep Watching after the end of the film."

Availability: Seen on Roadshow releases that have previews after the film. Version 2 is likely more easier to find due to it's longer usage.
